how much heatwrap??

[GreyGoose]

im looking to get some heat wrap to wrap my header but how much do i need?? most likley im only going to wrap the upper half only. do i use the 1 or 2 inch?? and the 12 or 50ft??

12ft wrap isnt going to wrap nothing but a sandwich....50ft 2in wrap FTMFW!!!!

^^^^ correct

u could always do the math for how much u need

length of each tube x circumference + a little more for overlaps

Dont forgett about bends...those need more wrap...

1" x 12 foot for the upper only.........

yes if you are a pro like urself... id just order the longer one just to make sure you have enough... better to have too much then not enough

[primercrxSi91]

u wont be able to do it with 12ft...did it gonna need the 50ft one

I agree more is better than less

[transzex]

maybe I used the 2" wide.......

not a pro, only ever wrapped one header, got 50', had 30 feet left over and I wrapped the whole header, not just the upper. So I used 20 feet.

I think you should get at least two or three sets of 50'. That's just my opinion though....:haha:

any recomended brands?

[goomer416]

go for about the average priced stuff... the expensive stuff is well... expensive... and usually the cheap stuff just sucks... just pick a decent priced brand and then right a reveiw on it in about a week :TU:
